Since 1953 Yad Vashem has been entrusted by the Jewish People as the world’s center of Holocaust remembrance and education. Yad Vashem could not have grown and developed as it has for over six decades without the help and involvement of thousands of supporters, Jewish and non-Jewish alike, throughout the world.
Yad Vashem creates and implements hundreds of activities and programs each year through its various departments, such as the International School for Holocaust Studies, the Righteous Among the Nations, the International Institute of Holocaust Research, the Museums Division and the Library and Visual Center.
